I very rarely care about celebrities.
But I saw the news as I was cooking dinner earlier. And just said, "Oh no, not Dolly".
She was a treasure, part of the soundtrack of my life, and an all-round wonderful human being
@cstross RIP. One of the good humans.
Her memory _will_ be a blessing. #dollyparton
It’s good to know finally someone is up there to have a word with this God person about what’s going on right now.
You tell him, Dolly.
@cstross
Say it ain't so!! I'm noy a big C&W fan, but U admired her for her humanity an philanthropy.
FWIW? I actually had respect for Dolly Parton. She always seemed real, modulo the fact her 'real' consisted of a certain level of artificiality. She was obviously smart as hell. She used her fame and wealth to help others, while doing so in ways which showed focus and an understanding of what people actually need.
And she really was a talented performer and songwriter.
RIP Dolly. I'll miss you.
@cstross Literacy lost a champion there.
@cstross long live the Dolly.
@cstross That is sad news indeed. She will be missed.
@cstross Well bugger.
I just heard. The good people die, and the rapscallions live for what seems to be forever.
